Jeffrey Amelse wrote an article on attributing a particular 1824 O-116 Capped Bust Half Dollar. The article is linked for readers below. He intends to talk about the article and the process he followed in attributing the half dollar at the JRCS Quarterly Zoom meeting on November 20th.

At a south-central Pennsylvania coin show during 1994 I encountered a harshly cleaned 1837 Reeded Edge Bust Half unlike any that I had seen to date. Further, Jules Reiver was unaware of a matching example. Without declaring it to be a “new” die marriage, I decided to “wait and see” for a matching (preferably better condition and grade) example to come to light. Richard Graham’s Reeded Edge Bust Half Dollars registry, published in 2012, did not list a match. Now, over thirty years since the coin originally surfaced, it is under scrutiny within the Reeded Edge Bust Halves community.

From the JR Newsletter Editor: If a reader sent me information about an 1837 half dollar that was at ICG, I never received a photo of the coin in case you wanted to publish photos for readers of the newsletter.
